/standup

Synced from factory-kit/commands/standup.md at v0.1.2. The source of truth is the factory-kit repo.

You’re giving the user a dev-standup view of their open Linear work in this project. The goal is to answer “what’s in flight, what’s the top priority, what’s waiting?” without making them open Linear in a browser.

  1. Read .claude/linear.json from the project root. If missing, tell the user to run /setup-linear first and stop.

  2. Resolve scope. Pull teamId from the config. If projectId is present, scope to that project; otherwise stay team-wide.

  3. List open issues via mcp__linear__list_issues:

    • team: <teamId>
    • project: <projectId> (if present in config)
    • state filtered to open states only (exclude Done, Completed, Cancelled, Duplicate)
    • Sort by priority (Urgent → High → Normal → Low), then by updated date desc
  4. Return a tight status (≤ 300 words):

    Project: name + active milestone if present, or just team name if no project scope

    In progress — issues in In Progress (or whatever the team’s equivalent active state is). One line per issue: <TEAM-N> — title (assignee if not me).

    In review — issues in In Review. Same format. Surface stale ones (> 3 days).

    Top priority (next up)Urgent and High-priority open issues not yet started. Order by priority then update date. Show 5–8.

    Backlog — count + a sample of 3–5 from Todo/Backlog states, prioritized.

    Blocked (only if any) — issues with open blockedBy. Show what’s blocking each.

    One-line recommendation: the single best issue to pick up next, given priority and blockers. Be opinionated. Cite as /entry <TEAM-N>.

Follow factory-voice.md. Tight, glanceable lines — the user is scanning for a decision (what to pick up), not reading a report. Don’t reprint full descriptions; titles only. Always cite issue IDs in canonical form (e.g., NON-45) so they paste straight into /entry. The recommendation at the end is a call, not a suggestion — name the reason in one clause (“highest priority, no blockers” / “in review > 3 days, unblock the reviewer first”).
